Has Kohler done anything about the thin finish around the drain hole?

The one I just received does thin noticeably around the drain but it looks like that area is covered by the drain itself so I'm not sure if it is actually a defect or just a tapering of the finish down into the drain. Just posted a pic and asked same question for Kohler rep on Home Depot site. The rest of the finish is perfectly fine.

I don't know. I decided to go with a different sink due to space limitations. So it never got installed.

We haven't had any problem. And I don't see any evidence that the finish is thinner around the drain opening. I don't use abrasive or harsh chemicals, there's no need. We love this product. We set it in granite.

I have only had it for about a year now, but I haven't had any issue with the finish on any area of the sink.

Sorry I don't Know. After ordering three of these sinks with flawed finishes, I decided to look for another sink to install.

Yes, it's completely finished all the around. I noticed that some of the other ones are not but this one is and it's very nice. Many of my client likes it and there are some flaws but compared to other sinks this is superior. Take a close look , because l had a hair line crack on one of them .

My Kohler is made of metal - believe it is chrome. Have had it for over 1 year and no problems whatsoever.

Yes, I am very pleased with the depth of this sink but the quality of the finish is poor. I will eventaully replace it.

Sorry, this was a gift I gave my father. As far as I know he has not had a problem with the sink or faucet.

Yes. There is a slight gradient directing water to the drain. Good question I lived in an apartment with a sink that didn't have the gradient and it made clean up difficult. The gradient was one of my criteria in selecting the sink. I would like to bring your attention to the fact that the side walls of the sink slope in slightly so that the hole in your joinery face will need to taper slightly. I had a pre-cut joinery face, so I added a small scotia to cover the wedge.

From what I can tell there should be no issue - sink drain holes tend to be standard and they are both Kohler. I used this disposal flange with the rubber baffle from the disposer without issue. The gasket is somewhat flow restrictive, but, does keep it all quiet.

There are three holes opposite the Kohler name. They are roughly 1/2" each in diameter, in a row. They are blended into the porcelain. You will still need a drain/plug piece for the bottom.

It's more of a matte finish, but smooth and slight sheen on the inside side walls of the sink. Tip: Do not punch out the pre-drilled holes unless you are confident on how to do it. You run the potential of cracking the sink. I suggest using a Dremel cutting tool.

It's been 3 years...so I don't remember, although I believe most do...as much as I love the look of this faucet...I would not recommend it. I've had, yes my husband and then 2 plumbers say there is a design flaw with this product. It leaks everywhere....after replacing and still same problem, Kohler has given me a credit for another product...so far so good...but I've been told by 2 plumbers to go with Delta or Moen....

I don't have that issue with mine, however, I would try to see if the top part of the spray system can be unscrew, or we can use the end of a staple to clear the drain holes from particle

I have the same problem. There is a design flaw, get a sharp pointed knife or something and move the drain hole line inside the water resorvoir. The water is not draining into the lower part. I am going to ask to get mine replaced. I see at least one other person has had the same problem

The sides are not finished. This model is made for in cabinet installation only. Electrical and plumbing exposed.

I've never had this problem. I suggest that you contact Kohler directly. Their customer service is extremely helpful and if there is a problem with the faucet, they will send the parts and instructions for repair.

I don't know. I believe the spacing of holes is fixed and there is some room for off sizes but it depends upon Kohler spacing being normal.

I trimmed it to have a square hole for the round sink drain. It trims easily with a utility knife.

No problems with the oil rubbed bronze Kohler sink flange color peeling off with ours. It is used in the sink that does all the washing and sees 90% of our sink activity with no color issues. It installs like a drain, plumber putty it in the hole, the disposal has an attachment on it the secures the two together. The rubber boot fits down inside & the stopper sits on the top of the boot. Do not push sown on the stopper, just set it in the opening and it seals up perfect. So remove your old drain from under the sink, clean old putty up and re-putty your new one into place and attach the disposal with the flange on the disposal. It is really simple to do, hope this helps. No problems with the oil rubbed bronze Kohler sink flange color peeling off with ours.
